Abstract

See full text

A ticket holder presents a ticket to a merchant that includes security features. The merchant authenticates the ticket holder using the security features. A barcode appears on the ticket to identify the ticket. The ticket holder's identity is verified by comparing the printed security features to the features found on the ticket holder. In addition, the barcode is used to retrieve customer security features that were previously provided by the customer to the merchant. The security features are transmitted to the merchant or the merchant is provided a link to a security server which transmits the security features upon request. The previously provided security features are compared against both the ticket holder's features as well as the security features appearing on the printed ticket. If the ticket holder does not match the security features he is denied admission to the event.
